Good idea that!

Think i will try a video log of my journey, for posterity!

Thanks for the idea!

Congrats on doing a video log. I'm sure it will be very helpful to pre-ops!!

I used a few of the Wal-Mart bullets but thanks to some vets here at VST I learned that they are comprised of mostly collagen Protein vs. pure whey. I asked my NUT about them and she said they were not as good as Isopure, etc. which were a "better" form of protein. But she okayed them for use. I ended up taking ice and putting it in my snowcone maker and pouring the bullets over shaved ice and eating it with a spoon. I used "Premier Protein" RTD (ready to drink) shakes from costco (1 shake = 30g protein and only 1g of sugar) because they were easy and I didn't have to dirty a blender. lol. When I do use a blender I like Jay Robb Protein powder, it is my personal favorite.

Try the greek yogurt when you get to mushies for more protein. Also use the powdered protein powder (the powdered whey you bought) and add it to your sugar free pudding, etc. to give it some more protein, once you are on to mushies.

Good luck with your upcoming surgery! I hope everything goes well.
